Description
A real adventure in complete safety over a distance of about 6 km. We usually leave from Playa de Las Coloradas and paddle along the coast through the Natural Park of Los Ajaches until we reach the paradisiacal Playa Papagayo, the most famous beach in the south of Lanzarote. We take a moment to rest, have a drink and a snack on the beach (included in the price). It's a circular route so we will paddle back to the same starting point.

Brilliant experience!
My daughter and I had a great kayaking experience to papagayo with Alessandro, who was a brilliant guide, and shared so much knowledge about the island and geology. The kayaking was fab with great views, travelling along the coast. We also had time for a stop off at one beach for a bit of history, refueling and a quick snorkel. Would highly recommend. A real work out and a morning really well spent. Highly recommend!!

Great trip with a brilliant guide
A brilliant experience with a really interesting and knowledgable guide. Alessandro made the trip, sharing great insights about the island and sights. Kayaking was challenging but great experience. A highlight for our kids and friends, worth doing to f holidaying in Lanzarote

Thank you sooo much! Paddling to Papagayo every day could easily start to feel repetitive, but thanks to people like you, it never does. Seeing the place through your eyes and sharing your excitement lets me experience it all over again, just like the very first time! See you soon in Lanzarote Alessandro - Aò!

Great experience, beautiful island with a brilliant guide
Alessandro was a brilliant guide, he shared so much about the island and sights from the tour. The kayaking was great, travelling along the coast line to different bays. Taking time to refuel and snorkel. Would highly recommend. A real work out but highlight of our trip to playa Blanca for our kids and their friends.

Fantastic time on the water
We had an amazing kayaking experience with Alessandro as our guide. He was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made everyone feel comfortable from the very beginning. With great enthusiasm, he shared fascinating stories about the island's history and explained how the impressive rock formations were created, making the tour both enjoyable and educational. His passion and knowledge really brought the surroundings to life. Alessandro's positive attitude and professionalism made the whole experience unforgettable. Thanks to him, we had a fantastic time on the water and created wonderful memories. Highly recommended!

Activity of 10.
An experience of 10!!! We did the activity as team bonding with our group, and it was very fun and spectacular. Alessandro was explaining to us at all times what we were seeing, brought water and snacks for everyone, and even provided us with masks to go snorkeling at Papagayo Beach. We will definitely repeat it; we already want to try other activities!!!
Operator response
Muchisimas gracias!!! Yo también me lo pasé genial con vosotros ;) Hasta pronto!!!

A good fun kayaking trip.
Great fun! Alessandro was very cool - competent, relaxed, very informative of both kayaking technique and local geology and history. A well paced 3 hours, he very easily coped with a range of abilities and ages in the group. We are a reasonably experienced kayaking couple. The equipment provided was fine, Alessandro gave a very clear 10 minutes of instruction before entering the water, then backed this up with further advice in the water - great for less experienced group members. The snorkelling was great - lots of different fish close to shore. A very nice time was had by all. Thanks Alessandro !
Operator response

Amazing experience
Amazing experience. My partner and I enjoyed every minute of our trip and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to explore the island from a different perspective. The snorkelling off Papagayo was fantastic with lots of different fish to see. The guide was very knowledgeable about so much of the history of the island. Very well organised and professional must do activity if visiting Lanzarote xx

Thank you so much! Reviews like this not only help my business but also give me that push needed to work harder and more motivated :) See you soon in Lanzarote! Alessandro - Aò!
